Outsourcing has been very popular for overseas companies looking to save on project development costs. Some of the popular outsourcing destinations are the Philippines and India. While India was enjoying a lot of attention, the Philippine outsourcing scene is rapidly cathing up. Filipino Programmers and Web Developers are a favorite because of the very cheap development cost that they offer their potential clients. Most of the time potential clients just post projects to freelancing sites such as Elance, ODesk, Getacoder and other such similar sites and wait for a swarm of developers to bid on their projects.

Other foreign nationals go a step further to take advantage of this situation, they not only search for Filipino Web Developers but they go personally in the Philippines to establish their own outsourcing company.
